Anagha, film photo session [Edinburgh, 2024]

Anagha is in her early 20s and is a student and one of the tenants in the house where I live. I love her common sense, simplicity and also her innocence. Last week-end, when I asked her to pose for me, she cheerfully accepted (blessed youth!). What hit me was that, when I asked her whether she preferred me to shoot her with my new digital body (R6 II) or with my old film Nikon camera (f801s), without hesitation, she replied : “Your film camera, please. This kind of pictures reminds me when I was a child and I was being shot in film by my dad”. Well, the rest is history πŸ™‚ the results are below. She fit flawlessly into the spring context of our garden: she was indeed a flower between the flowers. And if you look carefully, in one photo some daisies emerge from her beautiful mane!
